  • BOLDSTONE SCULPTURE

    We work with local and international interior and garden designers, architects and property developers as well as private clients creating and designing artworks suitable for large and small scale projects.

    Boldstone uses their own original range of designs which we reinterpret to suit projects.

    Inspiration for our artworks comes from the observation of pattern in nature and the interpretation of pattern using the interaction of light and shadow, colour, line, form and texture. Themes are developed using differing mediums and materials expressed in sculpture, drawing and painting.

    Each artwork is handmade and focuses on craftsmanship and attention to detail.
    Boldstone’s wall sculptures and artworks are adaptable to many settings, whether that be a private home or an hotel lobby and spa.

    Boldstone is committed to sustainability and wherever possible uses eco-friendly materials. We are dedicated to the responsible use of resources and aim to create art that not only enhances spaces but also respects the environment.
    We collaborate with clients to create bespoke wall sculptures tailored to specific spaces, themes or concepts. Whether a signature piece for a corporate headquarters or a series of sculptures for a residence. We create drawings and storyboards to help work with you to realise your idea.



  • So much more than just great colours…

    Discover the artistry of Fenwick & Tilbrook, a Norfolk-based, family-run, independent paint brand.  Its premium, pigment-rich paints redefine excellence, embrace enduring quality and deliver intense depth of colour without compromising on durability. With an extensive colour palette that is made-to-order in six beautiful finishes, the signature product, Pure Matt Plus, provides an exquisite 3% low sheen finish that achieves a class 1 scrub rating with ultra-low VOCs.

    From scrubbable emulsion and highly breathable claypaint for lime plaster, through to beautiful colour cards and A5 painted sheet samples, Fenwick & Tilbrook places great customer service and expert advice at the heart of its brand ethos. The palette takes its inspiration from the unique and beautiful colours of the British countryside, coastline and wildlife, maintaining a deep connection with the environment. With the brand being based in the beautiful village of Attlebridge between Norwich and the North Norfolk coastline, this part of the UK is a constant source of inspiration for the team when it comes to creating new paint colours with some favourites including Sheringham Beach, Seal Pup, Still Norfolk, Gorse & Natterjack.

    In 2023, the brand introduced bigger and better painted sheets to give customers a choice of sample types.  The A5 paper samples help to reduce sampling costs to the customer whilst providing a less wasteful, environmentally friendly alternative to sample pots (which remain available to purchase in 100ml pots). This year, the family-run team have also partnered with a local art university to give unused paint a second life in student projects, recycling any paint that may have been made in error.

    Brand Director Anna Hill comments; “Our paints have incredible chroma and this intense depth of colour comes from the quality of the pigments found in each tin.  The paint is water based and low in VOCs, beautifully matt yet incredibly durable. By investing in responsibly sourced solids and high-quality pigments, we ensure our paints not only deliver vibrant, long-lasting colours, but also minimise waste and unnecessary consumption. In today’s world conscious choices matter, so decorating well, once, should be high on our Interior Design agenda!”

    Whether you are a fan of bright and bold shades or prefer a classic and elegant neutral, Fenwick & Tilbrook have an extensive palette to choose from, offering a bespoke colour creation service for projects requiring something a little different.

    Fenwick & Tilbrook is made to order and despatched same day, priced from £27 for 1 litre of Pure Matt emulsion.



  • Trend Alert: Craftmanship Revival

    A new board from wood floor specialists Woodpecker Flooring celebrates Craftmanship Revival – the latest interiors movement valuing skilled workmanship in homewares.

    Chepstow Distressed Charcoal Oak Engineered Wood Flooring is the latest addition to Woodpecker’s Legacy range, a unique collection that has received extra care and attention from Woodpecker’s team of expert designers. It is available in two widths, a generous 190mm, and a extra wide 240mm.

    A stunning blend of rich auburn and deep chocolatey hues, with bevelled edges and characterful markings, Chepstow Distressed Charcoal Oak has been designed to look like it’s always been a part of the home.

    The board epitomises Craftmanship Revival – a trend that appreciates the artisanal nature of homewares. It’s a move that celebrates natural materials as well the striking imperfections that add character and give each board an aged feel.

    Darwyn Ker, Managing Director of Woodpecker Flooring, said: “Chepstow Distressed Charcoal Oak Engineered Wood Flooring is ideal for capturing the feel that yours is a floor that’s been loved across the generations.

    “It works beautifully with sultry dark walls for a luxe feel, or with bright fresh paint to give a modern Parisian chic feel.”

    Chepstow Distressed Charcocal Oak is not the only Woodpecker range to showcase the Craftsmanship Revival trend; York Antique Oak, Goodrich Barn Oak and Berkeley Cathedral Oak will all bring artisanal charm to the home. 

    The antique-inspired Chepstow Distressed Charcoal Oak Engineered Wood Flooring is available now from woodpeckerflooring.co.uk priced at £152 per m2.

  • Riviera Home Goes Outdoors

    Renowned for its fine-quality handwoven carpets, Riviera Home has launched two new ranges made from premium TufStrand™ yarn. Suitable for outdoor and indoor use, TufStrand is an all-weather yarn that’s stain-resistant and bleach cleanable. Soft enough to be comfortable and luxurious indoors yet durable and practical enough to resist the elements, the yarn brings unity between indoor and outdoor living. Thanks to TufStrand, these new carpets are protected from household spills, easy to clean and represent great value for money.

    Part of Riviera Home’s Italian inspired collection, Livorno is handwoven from 100% TufStrand polypropylene. Incorporating two distinct designs: a wilton textured basketweave and a flatwoven herringbone, each in two complementary duo-tone colourways, Livorno adds elegance to any home. With Livorno, homes can seamlessly flow from open plan living to outdoor relaxing with the comfort and luxury that comes with Riviera Home.

    Medina is also from Riviera Home’s Italian collection, this time presenting wilton textured basketweave and flatwoven herringbone designs in three multi-tonal colour combinations. The carpet’s rich design makes it a statement in style and the multi-tonal yarn also helps to disguise dirt and spills more readily before cleaning.
